How to balance sustainability and internationalisation? It is an increasingly important challenge for all actors involved in internationalisation activities, and is particularly acute when it comes to mobility. This dilemma, with all its practical aspects, is more and more at the core of IROs’ work.
If you are committed to green approaches and passionate about internationalisation, the Student Mobility Summit 2025 is for you!
